Plot
In the 2040s, a Eirus research base, Alpha Base outpost, is established. The eight-person crew, which has been stationed there for six months, is only nineteen hours from the completion of their research mission. The spacecraft Aurora is inbound from Earth and will collect the team by lander.
Eirus scientist Christov Danilovich has found samples that point to life on the planet. Without revealing his discovery, he devises a ruse for a last EVA on the surface. Crewmate Tanner Gosling drives Danilovich in a solar-powered rover to the spot where he found the sample. After he obtains soil with the biological agent present, Danilovich falls into a sinkhole that suddenly opens.
Captain Nico Branco and crewmate Maggie Allan plan to explore the pit to retrieve Danilovich's body. Allan remains at the pit but disappears before the team can return with equipment. Branco authorizes Isaac Peres to explore the pit. He finds that a bacterial organism is present in the fissure. Allan and Danilovich reappear at the main outpost, but exposure to the organism has altered them into fast, aggressive, feral zombie-like creatures with blackened skin and no trace of their original personalities. Gosling dies from a power drill attack by one of the zombies and later revives as one himself. The remaining crew hold off the zombies while Branco and Peres return. Branco is also fatally injured and reanimates, which provides the crew with new insight into the symptoms: thirst, memory loss and aggression. It’s also discovered that antibiotics delay the infection.
After several fights and escapes from the zombies through the habitat modules, mission psychologist Marciano Torres saves himself by trapping scientist Alivia Beckman in the hydroponics lab with one of the zombies. Apolônia Rosa is also stabbed in the leg during the frantic escape to a rover. With their rover's power low, the survivors – Peres, Torres, and Rosa – decide they must get to the other rover, which is still at the site of the fissure. Under the pretence of a scouting operation, Torres steals the second rover and fails to persuade Peres to abandon Rosa, whom he states is infected. Torres meanwhile conceals evidence of his own possible infection.
While Peres and Rosa wait for the sun to rise and the solar-powered batteries to recharge, they discuss the nature of the zombies. Rosa questions whether any human consciousness remains trapped in them. Peres attempts to comfort her and falls asleep. When he awakens alone, Peres realizes that Rosa has fled into the desert, so he chases her. Rosa, who knows she is likely to transform, fails to deter Peres from following her. In desperation, she commits suicide by removing her helmet. After she dies, Rosa reanimates and begs Peres to destroy her. Peres reluctantly complies.
